Esther House Resource Center-- Up and Running and enough to Grow On!

Hello--all blog readers and Esther House supporters. Today marks the third month of establishment for the Esther House Resource Center. Hence, I have been inspired to dig a little from the past weeks and share the exciting yet challenging moments we have began to venture upon.
The Resource Center opened the doors to the public February o1, 2010. Hip Hip Hooray! This indeed was a very exciting moment. We had a total of nine students on opening week and offered a range of six classes. There is presently a phenomenal scope of teachers aligned--- who not only cover the material, but equip the girls with the support they need, to allow their personal capabilities to grow.
Classes at the Resource Center have grown to ten and will remain the same for our third month. By now you might be wondering what some of these classes are and so here’s the best shot I can give you from memory:
Sewing, Nutrition, Cooking, Financial Peace, Book Club, House Hold Management, Self Enrichment, Exercise, Gardening, Spanish.
Yeah, I’m getting better at remembering those. Anyhow, what a wonderful opportunity at hand………....…. The students here at the Resource Center are being exposed and nurtured with a vast variety of material that I myself would love to undergo.
One of the other mentioning factors is the students. While we are just beginning the enrollment process, we have been favored with receiving an undeniable fresh flow of goal builders. Not only are the students at the Resource Center exposed to expectation and hope, but their families are of consistent consideration as well. The girls are setting their own personal goals and allowing people to help nudge or listen or whatever it is that we can do to help.
In short: With relationships being built stronger, on a solid committed level, there indeed is great pride present while watching the girls reach for their goals. What sometimes seems unimportant, has suddenly surfaced to us as ordinances of necessity. We, at the Esther House Resource Center, are in awe of the possibilities that surround this community and the individual lives that are in reach.

Stay tuned to see and possible hear from our first student to accomplish the completion of her GED………………………

With Much Thanks,
Erika
